Sunday Weigh In - September 18, 2011

Okay, kids, here we are, with another week behind us!!  My how time flies when we're having fun, huh??  

Everything is going pretty well in my world, I guess.  Of course, we still have my aunt with us and we're all getting a bit frustrated with the arrangement, but I'm sure we'll get over it.

My weight is sort of bouncing up and down, but I ended up this morning at the same weight I was last week, so that's not all bad; at least I didn't go up, and I do have to say that I didn't eat well yesterday - neither the right things, nor amounts.  My fingers feel stiff and swollen this morning, so apparently, I ate too much salt yesterday.

Exercise...... what exercise??  Since I work every day and am tired when I get home, but still have to care for my aunt, there's no time for exercising these days. Just think - over the past couple months, I have actually dropped approximately 10 pounds; I know it's been due to stress, but just think what it might have been, if I'd added some exercise!!

Enough about me - what about you?  Didn't see a very big turnout for last week's weigh in, so I hope everyone is doing well.  Let us know how you're doing so we can either cheer you on, or try to help you past a rough spot.

I'm truly into the countdown on my work -- I have only 3 more weeks left and I will be retired......... woohoo....

Here's wishing everyone a great week.

Remember, we win by losing.

I have been exercising like a fiend and eating light (working to be in shape for surgery) but somehow I lost only half a pound this week.  I believe it is because I am so close to where I need to be and should be...?  I'm fine with it, it's just that I want to be a few pounds lighter and in excellent condition when I start rehab.

I took 2 weeks off due to business travel but last week started back on another cycle for the Fat Loss for Idiots Diet.  In my first cycle I lost 7.5 and in my time off I put 4 pounds back on.  So far this cycle have lost 4.2 pounds.  Can't believe I am finally able to stick to a diet and see success.

Barb, I always look at the positive side of anything and the 10 pounds is the positive.  I'm sorry it has been stressful for you but am so happy you are about to retire.

Giggles, you're doing good not going up anymore.  Sometimes not dieting is better for losing weight than actually trying.  I do best when I'm not trying; hopefully, you will too.  Your attitude is awesome.

Hope you have a good week too.
